Love is like a religion. You are devoted to one person. You want to lay your name at their feet and carve their dreams into your bones. Their name becomes sacred in your mouth. Their ambitions become your own.
------
I was mad at her, so mad at her, but Lord, was she gorgeous. I think that’s what love is: no matter how angry you get, your love filters over everything. You hate them but they’re still beautiful. They’re still golden. Their gilt can’t rot away.

I fucking love women!
Today I went to [insert city] women's health congers and it was the most amazing thing I've ever come to. No man was talking on the panels, there were no male doctors, all made for women by women and all of them were so based. It felt like home it was so empowering to hear that "I'm proud to be a woman and all of you girls should be too!" It was so nice to learn that there are so many women in my city who think the same as me.
There were classes on sex ed exclusively for women, childbearing and sterility, women's health after menopause, and more. You could go and get yourself checked for free and have breast Ultrasound to see if you have breast cancer. We broke last year's record in breast self-examination and every woman got a little cute gift after that. But most importantly we were all together and we were celebrating our diverse femininity.
I made some friends too, it was great!

Having both female candidates suck fucking ass and still getting the worst of the two as president is the most wonderfully Mexican thing ever. I love this country

Okay so basically the United States MINT of all people is going to be working with DC to make a line of coins! These coins sadly won't be in circulation (the things I would do to live in a world where I could get Batman coins from the supermarket) as they're collectors coins, but will be releasing over the course of the next 3 years, 2025-2027.
Designs haven't been released yet (the same is true for all 2025 designs) but we know there will be 9 coins in total (3 each year) with the first year featuring (of course!!!) Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.
Although we know the first three heroes to be featured, the remaining six have yet to be decided, and it turns out the Mint is putting out a survey on their site to gauge which of a group of culturally significant heroes people want to see most! (link to the form is mentioned in the article above)
The considered group includes: Supergirl, the Flash, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Captain Marvel, John Stewart GL, Aquaman, Hawkman, Jamie Reyes BB, Robin (Damian?), Cyborg, and Batgirl, of which 6 will be selected.
As someone who does a bit of coin collecting myself (mainly circulation coins like the quarters sets, but I also have a couple proof and collectors coins) I think this is a really cool and interesting idea that showcases the history of the comics medium and these characters and their influence on American culture. Really excited to wait and see what the designs look like for the coins already announced!

deseret book is more persistent than duolingo.
i ordered 2 books for a church research project on Black saints in the early Church and also in the Reorganization, on which the one book had a small section us and all had info from the our shared early church history, and it was an ebook too!
and i get physical mail from them once a month. i have no idea how to cancel.
herald house, the community of christ publishing house, contacts me much less, and i buy books from them all the time.
and oh their church book app reminds me to read my scriptures and the words of their prophets regularly if it's not in sleep mode.
i have to admire the effort behind it, ngl.
